I have a Nikon d100. I have a 2GB Sandisk Extreme III that was full. I transferred the photos to my computer. Trashed the files on my computer so the card was empty. Put the card back into my camera and the camera is still showing the card as "Full" so won't take picture. I've checked the card on my computer and it is empty and the camera does indicate that there are no photos on the card for viewing. I have taken out the battery but that isn't working. Any ideas?

I left it safely stored at my vacation home for three months, and when I tried to use it today it appeared to take pictures, all functions seemed to be working, but reviewing the pictures I see only a black monitor. It shows a file number, the info shows exposure details but there is no image. I did a re-set to factory spec, put in a fresh battery, tried several memory cards, all with no success. Looking at the memory card on my computer shows the

My Canon Powershot SD 400 won't download photos to my computer. I have a brand new battery. When I connect the camera and turn it on my computer shows the device for a moment and tries to get the data. The camera turns off shortly after it is on (no blinking light). When I unplug the USB it stays on no problem. I also swapped another USB and took out the memory card and battery and put it back in again.

No power I turned the camera on and the lens came out then the screen went blank. I thought the battery may be low even though it was recently charged, so I put it on the charger. The orange charge light did not come on. I removed the battery and checked it with a voltmeter and it was showing 8.4 volts. Everything points to a blown fuse or something like that. Is there a fuse in the camera?
Hope you can help

We have a Kodak 8.2 mega pixel camera that is approximately 1 1/2 years old. I took pictures and then uploaded them onto my computer. Unplugged everything. When I went back to delete the pictures off the camera card, the camera would not turn on or do anything. I tried to charge the battery but when everything is plugged in it is still totally dark. We purchased a new battery thinking that was the problem and still nothing. When the charger in plugged in there is nothing - no lights at all.

ImageMate USB I took pictures with my camera, and decided to put them on the computer, rearange them, then put them back in my camera in the groups I wanted. However, I put them in my computer, rearanged them, and they ended up not showing up when I put the memory card in my camera! They show up on the computer though with my memory card. How do I put them back in my camera?

I just took over 67 pictures on my Kodak EasyShare P850 camera. I put my smart card in my computer and it only showed less than 1/2 of the pictures. I copied them to a CD. When playing a slide show it comes up with an drawing error. I've never seen this. It seems that if I press the review button it messes up everything. Is this a fixable problem or do I trash the camera?

I have a Fuji Finepix F45 camera.
After taking a photo the screen shows a badly blurred image. Same applies if I load the memory card into my PC. The image has wavy lines.
I have tried recharging the l-ion battery. replacing the battery with a new charged battery, & replacing the XD card to no avail.
I suspect that the charger may be defective.
However the camera does show the battery as being fully charged. After spending £25 on a new battery I am reluctant to spend £30 on a new charger wh

When I put my memory card in my camera it says Err Cf and won't let me take pictures and won't show any of my previous pictures on the card on the screen on the camera. When I put the cf card in my card reader and plug it into my computer, nothing happens. The computer doesn't register the card at all and I tried putting a different memory card in the reader and it worked so it definitely isn't the card reader that is the problem. I don't care if the card is broken but I have a bunch of picture

Hi There.It sounds to me from what you described that the card has gone. Unfortunately , with volatile memory such as flash drives or memory cards a recovery is usually not possible as the chip where the data is stores is destroyed. ...
